Chapter 113 I Forgot to Control My Heart
Gu sat lazily on the sofa, his eyelids slightly squinted, his deep eyes staring at Lin Du, but he said nothing.
Lin Du swallowed his saliva, staring at Gu Xinchi's hand closely, not daring to look into his eyes.
Lin Du rubbed his fingers unconsciously. This silent tension was suffocating.
"Gu Nienchi, I...I want to make a deal with you." Lin Du bit his lower lip nervously, his body trembling slightly, as if he was trying his best to suppress his emotions.
"Oh?" Gu Niechi sneered contemptuously, his voice no longer gentle, "What do you want to trade with me?"
Lin Du's palms were sweaty, his heart was beating like a drum, and his expression was stiff. He was obviously extremely nervous. He pointed to his stomach and said, "Him."
Gu Penchi's face was gloomy, like the abyss at midnight, giving people a sense of mystery and gloom: "Tell me."
"I know you approached me for the sake of the child, I..."
"What about you?" Gu Nichi interrupted Lin Du, "Don't you have a purpose as well?"
Lin Du's heart skipped a beat, and his breathing stagnated. He lowered his eyes slightly, and realized that he had a purpose from the beginning.
Therefore, even if I sincerely entrust my trust to him, I cannot change his inherent opinion.
Lin Du pulled the corner of his mouth hard: "Yes, my purpose is to save Lin Yue."
"So, your feelings for me are all fake, and you've never been sincere at all?" After asking this, Gu Xinchi found it ridiculous. At this point, he still wanted to hear the response from Lin Du that he was expecting deep in his heart.
Lin Du sighed: "Does it still matter?"
Gu Niechi felt a sudden pain in his chest, but his expression remained calm. He sneered contemptuously: "It doesn't matter, so what's your deal?"
"I...I will give birth to this child for you, and you give me 3 million!" Lin Du was extremely agitated. He didn't know whether Gu Yanchi would agree or not, but he had no choice. If he gave birth to the child, his life or death would be in danger. He wanted to fight for Lin Yue's last hope.
Gu Nishikawa clenched his hands tightly, his knuckles turned white, as if he was enduring great pain.
He actually used the child as a bargaining chip. I really underestimated him.
Ten years ago, I sold myself for money, and ten years later, I sold my children for money.
Good, very good.
Gu Niechi raised his eyebrows slightly, spread out his palms, and said with contempt: "In your eyes, this child is only worth 3 million?"
Lin Du suppressed his bitterness and said, "Really? I only want 3 million, okay?"
Gu Nichi stood up and approached Lin Du, lifted his chin with his fingertips, and whispered in his ear: "Lin Du, can't you say yes to negotiation? Since you think you have enough chips, you should show your confidence. What are you afraid of?"
Lin Du turned his face away, his fingers unconsciously clenched, his body trembling slightly: "This child is very important to you, isn't it?"
"Threat me?" Gu Nichi looked down at Lin Du, lowered his eyes to see his hands trembling as he protected his lower abdomen.
"Gu Nichi, are you going to pay the 3 million or not?" Lin Du's beautiful eyes were filled with panic, but he stubbornly confronted Gu Nichi's cold eyes.
"What if I don't?" Gu Yinchi sat back on the sofa with a nonchalant sneer on his lips.
Lin Du's thumb gently stroked his belly, as if coaxing the baby in his belly. He bit his lip and took a deep breath: "If you don't agree, I will make you lose him."
Hearing the sound, Gu Anchi's eyes flashed with viciousness, his eyes flashed with anger, and veins bulged on his forehead.
The look he gave Lin Du was filled with deep and vicious anger.
He actually wanted to kill their children for just 3 million.
Gu Anchi's face gradually turned livid, and he was obviously extremely angry: "Lin Du, how dare you?"
Lin Du's heart skipped a beat, his balance became unstable, and he couldn't help but take two steps back.
Gu Yinchi's hand instinctively wanted to hold him back, but in the end, he stubbornly grabbed his neck and said, "If you dare to touch him, I will bury Lin Yue with him."
Lin Du's body went limp. He grabbed Gu Yanchi's hand that was pinching his neck and supported his body that was about to fall. "He is also my child. I... I don't want to hurt him. I only want 3 million. Please give it to me, Gu Yanchi."
Gu Yanchi shook off Lin Du, but then held back his strength: "So, what do you want to do after you get the money?"
Lin Du covered his neck, his chest aching badly: "I know you don't want to see me, I will take Lin Yue away and never appear in front of you again."
Gu Niechi raised his mouth in contempt, with an inexplicable pain in his heart: "Really?"
"I promise that I will never show up again until I die." Lin Du raised his hand and swore.
Gu Yanchi lowered his eyebrows and nodded slightly: "Very good, I am very satisfied."
"3 million for a child is a good deal, but I'm a businessman, and I won't do a deal that will lose money." Gu Nichi walked to Lin Du's side and gently stroked his belly. "As soon as the child is born, the 3 million will be paid immediately, so you'd better protect him for me."
Lin Du nodded: "Of course."
Gu Yanchi straightened Lin Du's face with his hands and pressed his tiger's mouth against his chin: "Lin Du, this is the real you."
"Well, yes, I'm sorry to let you see my truest side." Lin Du spoke with difficulty, unable to see the complexity in Gu Yinchi's eyes.
Gu Nishi pursed his lips tightly, his eyes full of reluctance and sadness. He let go of Lin Du and left without looking back.
The door was slammed shut, and Lin Du instantly lost all his strength. He sat paralyzed on the ground, letting his tears flow.
"I'm sorry, baby, don't blame me." Lin Du stroked his belly, feeling tormented by helplessness and despair, and his heart was broken.
Since the two reached an agreement, Gu Nichi has never returned home.
It was painful to take off all the fake clothes, but it also felt a lot easier.
Lin Du knew that his current task was to take good care of himself and give birth to the baby smoothly.
The empty room no longer had the warmth of the past, and Lin Du often sat with the puppy in his arms for a long time.
He has no interest in anything now and feels like a walking corpse.
Although Gu Lianchi did not go home, he had more servants and bodyguards around him.
The nutritionist prepares different meals for him every day, and his personal doctor also checks his physical condition every day.
Gu Yanchi sat in the car, watching the surveillance video on his phone. He watched Lin Du standing in a daze beside the garden, watched him holding the puppy and looking into the distance, watched him curled up on the sofa alone...
Unspeakable pain tortured him. He raised the corners of his mouth in self-mockery, remembering Lin Yan's warning.
He had really gotten so far that he couldn't stop playing that there was no turning back. Even if he didn't want to let go, he had to.
In fact, he should be happy with this result. Everything is developing according to his expectations.
The child was born and Lin Du left.
But he only forgot to control his heart...
